I hope The Beast is more like Dying Light 1 and less like Dying Light 2. I didn't mind Dying Light 2 but 1 is just so good, and actually felt fun to explore.
@@yearofthebat The story lacked focus and was suffering from bloat but i still put 600 hours in it beacuse the gameplay is so fun, im happy they are moving on from choices impact the story beacuse they just dont have the writers for that but at least now they know why not a lot of developers do that.
@@yearofthebat i tried playing dl2 at the time of launch and it was horrible but now it actually feels like a good game after years of fixing. I hopped back on the game and finished it in 3 days, had lots of fun too. Not as good as dl1 obviously but its a good game now imo.
its absolutely godly how dying light focused the main game around a certain aspect, that being parkour, absolutely mastering it, then completely removed that in the following and still made a pretty good DLC with the buggy!
Dying light main plot: A man trying to cure a disease and defeat the bad guys Dying light the following main plot: A man going to an unknown land where a cult worships an ominous looking masked humanoid that slowly turns everyone into sentient volatiles capable of communicating through telepathy
The VA from Roger Craig Smith as Kyle Crane is some of the best VA I’ve best I’ve ever heard in gaming. His delivery when angry or confused is so funny and raw it’s incredible. That scene where he kills Rahim or is shocked by the coldness of the GRE are so funny and emotional
What shocks me is that playing this on a PS5 or Series X in Balanced Mode which is 1440p/60fps, it feels like a game released last year not a decade ago. It was so far ahead of the curve many others still haven't caught up.
Currently playing it on PC maxed out at 1920x1080 (I removed DoF and Motionblur though of course, my eyes already naturally blur and have dof) and yea, besides a few slightly and I mean SLIGHTLY muddy textures, I could easily convince my 15 year old brother that dying light 1 came out only a couple years ago. (He has a “ew I don’t like old games” mentality as if a game from 2014 is “old”)
The Following's ending really got me. I expected a happy jaunt through the countryside and getting some help. Not Crane fighting a Volatile-led cult and becoming one in the end. It freaking shook me more times than knowing Fatin and his equally moronic brother managed to live.
The main reason why people dont quit dying light early and never think this game is easy (we are talking about majority not everyone), is that Techland FORCED players to have a taste of ABSOLUTE HORROR in the early missions! you HAVE to collect air drops at night which you will get chased and also the mission that you have to take down a bolter is also worth mentioning here ...
Eh, the fact that the volatiles just f-off the moment you reach a camp, and there's a ton of them all over, makes running from them a non issue very quickly. I find it hard to suspend my disbelief that a safe zone of a chainlink fence and a uvlight is enough to keep them out...
@@planescaped Why not? They are allergic against that sh*t so its makes sense, its internal logic makes it coherent and therefore believeable. I mean you are in a fictional zombie world to begin with...I dont think the UV part should be your biggest concern when it comes to suspend belief or not...
@@planescaped when I first used to play it also thought the same cuz an outbreak just happened and you rely on a light? Instead of solid base? And the outbreak just happened they don't have enough information to rely on that thing and there are virals who don't get affected by uv lights but can still climb, but overall as I played it through it increased the intensity
Its in the title dying light. Those biters are technically dead since they can still pain and scream from it. They eventually wait for the light to die (sunset) so the harran virus within them thrive in the darkness.
Something that has allways made me crazy is how the OG dying light had this subtlie camera shake while doing parkour but in the second one is gone and it makes the parkour feel so stiff and wieghtless, and NOBODY talks about it
You can change head bobbing reduction and turn it off in the second game. I always have it set to the lowest because I love head bobbing in games like that. The head bobbing animation was actually better at launch but they changed it for whatever reason and it's not as good anymore but better than just a flat straight screen like literally every youtuber who plays the game has
saints and sinners is best on vr and this is the best on not. i played this game when i was like 10 and i loved it the thrill of this game is so beutiful
It’s the open world mechanic, the ragdoll, the slight horror aspect that makes DL1 so fun ; and even when you’re already late game; it still proves to be a challenge . It never loses its touch, from the first day you play it and I got a man crush on crane 😊
Dying Light 1 is one of the first 2 games (the other being Evolve) I got back in the PS4 that my Dad bought. It was so memorable and I'm thankful that he introduced me to this wonderful masterpiece
Dying light is the only game ever that i have finished multiple times because of how satisfying the gameplay is and fun especially with friends ive played this game over 4 times and still love it and play it. I remember seeing the run boy run trailer when i was young and i was astonished as a parkour freak i didnt know such a game could exist 10/10 videogame
Dying Light had a amazing story and was a incredible dive into the world, with Dying Light 2 improving the game experience in parkour and combat with zombies being explored, thought it lacks that soul from the original, Beast looks to be best of both worlds
2 is pretty mid , gameplay is mostly an improvement from the first game (other than physics system and ragdolls) but the story is so long and bloated and unnecessary. Dying light the beast seems like it's gonna be the best of both worlds tbh
Correction: DL2 *was* shit, but constant updates have drastically improved the game's atmosphere and gameplay, with minor yet necessary revisions to the story to make it flow well. Gut Feeling made the combat FAR more satisfying, Nightmare fixed the artstyle, and there's still THREE YEARS left of updates to improve the game.
I remember first playing the game. I wasted a full summer to max out to level 300 on kyle. (I just ran the stuff turtle everyday for like 2 hours return to the tower switched to nightmare difficulty and went to night for a 4X multiplier on the levels. So fun. I wont be doing that again.
As far as I understand, money still has value because the infection is just in Harran, ideally, they could be evac'd out or the situation could be dealt with, it's all very new
It's crazy to me how many people don't understand or remember that Dying Light 1 isn't a post apocalyptic game. It's technically a pre apocalyptic game. It's an epidemic at that point and not yet a pandemic.
being forced to do certain things at night makes this game feel nice you dont feel like you get treated as a baby where you can get away with just playing at day becasue the walking scabs are scary and make me shit my pants when i miss 1 jump.
Great synopsis my man. I fucking loved this game (except the shitty quick-time) and the expansion. I might just download it again after this and have another bash. Take a +1 sub.
i only now completed the base game so idk if theres an answer to it in the dlc but i still dont really know like how volatiles well do their thing becasue they feel very much different from all the other mutated zombies it doesnt feel like its the same virus, and along that same line how do people even turn into volatiles theres clearly a fuck load of them but i dont see anyone getting bitten by them being like on no im gonna turn into a volatile, so is it just another mutation thing like the rest of the zombies with the same virus or are they a whole another thing entierly?
Techland revealed that when a person gets bit they become a Viral, if that Viral is exposed to sunlight for too long they degrade into a Biter but if that Viral hides in darkness they evolve into a Volatile and if that Volatile is exposed to chemicals they become one of the different types of special infected like Goons, Demolishers, etc.
Has anyone else noticed zombie ai breaking it self in dl for example jamming an zombie into a tight space they get up without being shoved out then die or survive impossible falls like bro I just threw you off a 6 story building and watched you land on your head die already or that rarely demolishers forget how to throw boulders even when your out of there melee range
It was an nice game But I had my exams so i only played the main story, i didn't touch a single side mission, it took me 15-16 hours to complete the main story, the chase part are the best , i usually didn't go outside in night , i only went on mission which requires night time'
It's funny, I have never been able to get into Dying Light. I loved Dead Island and played that to death... maybe that's why. I had essentially already experienced the game. Tried playing it 3 different times and never last more than a few hours before I just lose interest.
its like Dead Island Riptide, on steroids, and even if i LOVED dead island riptide from the bottom of my heart, i can say dying light is better in almost all aspects, except tropical island with beautiful golden sands and turqoise water, that's one thing i'd change about dying light, something better than a turkish city...
I strongly believe if they remastered dying light 1s possibilities of combos just like they have in dying light 2, they could revive their old game aswel which would be welcomed by many old ytbrs, theyll play the remaster and the videos will be free marketing 🤷♂️
Man fuck you I loved Rahim :[ yall don't know what it was like getting depictions of eccentric arab people who were good guys for once, thick accents and everything. Every criticism I hear of the characters always comes down to people not bother to even consider enjoying them for how crucial they are for narrative cohesion
honestly i wish i cared more about the characters but i just don't which makes it feel even worse when kyle acts with so much emotion towards stuf happening its like ok? i dont really care but i guess its kinda sad, honestly i think by far the best characters are side quest one my facorite being that crazy ass witch doctor women becasue wanky potions and the 2 brothers who treat me like im an actual different speicies.
@@chadfield6552 Dead islands missions were incredibly dull and forgettable, dying light may not have the best side quests but are far more memorable and interesting in comparison. Everything in dying light is a massive improvement over dead island/riptide.

your channel has quickly become my favorite to watch keep it up man love every video you make would love to see your thoughts on the silent hill games
This game is awesome! I could play it over and over again.
while i do think DL2'S combat and parkour is fundamentally better than 1, 1 is just so much more replayable and is a well rounded package
More like one step forward and two back.
